What Should You Notice Before Buying An HD TV?
In this high tech era, our lifestyle is actually a communication pie. We don’t only communicate with each other to express or learn like primitives, but also to be entertained. In fact, it seems when we are paying money on communication equipments; it’s the first factor in our mind that how much we will get entertained.
So, when you are buying a Television the first factor will be how the pictures look in it. Off course, you have to buy an HD TV as we say ‘High definition Television’ to get better picture. What are the exact facts, which make one picture better compared to other; you must wonder! Then, if you learn these facts you will be able to make decision that which HD TV you should buy.
High Definition picture means much detailed picture. So the major facts are contrast ratio and resolution. Then you have to keep in mind about image shuttering, screen style, scan type, inputs and some other features. I am providing a brief description respectively on pointed factors. They are ranked on the basis of priority.
If Contrast ratio is high, it means black is much blackish and white is more whiter. So, when contrast ratio is high, the color will look better. A Full HD contrast ratio is now-a-days serves with 1000000:1 to 3000000:1.
Resolution represents the highest size of picture that this TV can show. It symbolizes another thing. How many dots TV uses to show us the pictures. The bigger size image it can show, the DPI (dot per inch) is higher in it. But, it is better if you double check and ask clearly for specific information. An HD resolution starts with 1080X720 to 1920X1080 pixels.
How much pictures we see in a second at TV! More pictures we see per second, video will be smoother to us. Normally we don’t face low frame rate in TV but when you are paying money for the best one why to buy a drawback? 120 Hz is better than 60 Hz. Effect should be clearly seen in live sports and blu-ray movies.
Normally we find LCD, LED, Plasma and Micro-display screened HD TVs. Today these different technologies serves almost same quality picture. But different technologies have different drawbacks and advantages. Micro-display screened HD TV contains a projector in it. But, it seems its projector bulb gets damaged after couple of years depends on using. Plasma always had better record for more contrast ratio than LCD till today. Though, Plasma screen has two drawbacks. First, it uses more electricity and second, it is more reflective. That means, reflective image of your window or table lamp can disturb you while watching a movie. But, it varies. So, when you are buying, check yourself. LED is actually LCD with LED back-light. This is the latest technology. Previously LCD used Cold Cathode Fusion ray and now-a-days t is replaced with Light Emitting Diode. LED saves electricity and serves great with extreme stability.
There are two types of scanning technology by which TVs make pictures on picture tube- progressive scan (one way for light beam. Slow but Steady) and interlacing Scan (two beams make the picture by interlacing with each other. Fast but can have superposition problem in case of fast moving pictures). I’ll prefer progressive scan. That means, 1080p is better than 720p.
Check and double check if TV’s input port supports your blu-ray player, laptop and gaming console. Older one can be replaced. But, if you are satisfied with present equipment, why to change now! So, check before buying.
Now-a-days HDTV comes with various widgets. Yahoo news, Youtube and many other features. Check which suits you. You should also check the menu list if it seems too hard to learn. Whatever, these don’t conceive a major importance.
Concerning with all of these notifications there is one thing you can’t neglect, the price. Take the help of this article on deciding which HDTV to buy between ranges that you can afford. Wish all best of luck on this phenomenon.
